MODERATORS, how is this comment insightful? Informative maybe (if even), but the only insight I see here is to promote ebgames.com. Come on, damn...
Cool! A new kid-tough computer for the kid!

This is what I'm thinking. Every kid who wants a computer of their own will beg for one of these units! Until now I have been trying to keep a MacII system running for my step-daughter (10 years old). I could grab up one of these puppies, run a ether cable up to it, and plug her right into my lan. Since I already run Linux on my boxen here it would be a nice easy addition.
These console games are rugged and are designed to take the beating that kids can dish out. And at 392 bogoMIPS that is more than my wife's celeron-266! Think of the savings I'll have by loading that thing up with Linux games rather than having to buy every single stinking piece of software at console game prices!
Yeah, thats the ticket!

Forget it. Never mind. No way is this thing worth $475. Ok, I get a new Dual AthalonMP, wife gets the Dual PII, kid gets the Celeron-266

Re: WHAT IS THIS
We were helping a buddy clean up his garage and he came across a small toolbox. He opened it up and pulled out some small gizmo with an electric plug and a handle and a little round head. He said "What is this?" To which I replied "Fuck if I know." Then he pulled out this weird crescent shaped knife with a T-shaped handle and said "how about this?" I said "Some kind of knife?"
That whole thing still gives me nightmares. Was our buddy a maniac? Were they cops? What the hell was that weird shit doing in his garage?
